' Why the Japanese should attackMr. ilitrrimuu and Ilia party is not clear, lie has nover promised to build an y aailronds in tho eiupiro, nor as yot 'niado any ntteiupt to gather it in. Tho Czar woul d pruhnhly be happy 1 f Ijo could establish peace between himself and his people as promptly as ho did with Japan. That's a job though that even M. Witte might hes itate to tnokic. Tho people of Jnpau are expressing ithelr dissatisfaction with the turma ot tho peaco treaty by rioting on the streets. Thoro have been sevoial clashes between the police and pooplo, and several have beeu killed and a great number wounded, The trial of the manager of the "Lebanon Sooial Club" for soiling liquor without license resulted in the case beiug dlsmissod, Tho "club1 will go out of busluesa, however. Uovornor Folk, of Missouri, baa started for the Portland exposition, with a full retinue of goueruls, colon els and the display of gold lace is said to be gorgeous in the extreme. Uov ornor Folk will also launoh bis presi dential boom during his visit to the coast. Perhaps the most sincere compli mentand, oomiug from the source it does, the greatest one paid M. Wltto for bis conduct of the poace negotiations, was tho romark of the Louisvlllo editor that "if M. Wltto had been a Kentuokian ho would have made a magniflaent poker player." There is another brand of fool, who ranks with tho fool who "shoots when the brush moves" and the fool that "rooks the boat," aud that is the kind that locks small children in the hoiiBe and goos away for several hours, usually leaviag matches bandy or a ooal oil can where it can be easi ly reaohod by small fingers. Tho usual result Is the burning of the house and the destruction of innocent little lives. Demurrer Overruled.

Mitobell et al, oharging them with conspiracy to defraud the govornment of a portion of its lauds. When the Judgo's dooisiou was rendered John M. (loariu, attorney for llernmnu, asked to bo ullowod to enter a plea I of not guilty on behalf of his oliont, which request was granted. At tho sniuo time a motion of sevor- nnco was made by Unitod States Dis trict Attorney lleuoy, in tho case of tho Unitod States against John II. Mitoholl, Hlllger Horniauu ot al. Mr. llenoy linked that Senator Mitcboll be given a separate trial. Tho court agrood to thin, stating that hi) would niako tho order at a tiltio when tho at torneys for all tho defendants were present in uourt. Storms Brewing from 18 to 33rd of September. Ily watching the papers closely of storms and earthquakes that are like ly to take effect on that day one will realize sometbing of the awful power in the lefts that govern our planetary system, of eight planets. Astronomers tell us thero miiBt have been another, between the orbit of Mars and Jupi ter, as there has been over two hun dred large pieces discovered. Some have oirouits and others roam at rau dom. Whole storms ot abootiug stars, as they are oalled, are attracted to the earth when near enough. The cause of the bursting such a huge plauet must have been tremedous. The electrical shock was what did the deed. We have evidences of similar shocks in our mountain ranges aud volcanoos. On the 9th of this month, Italy bad a violent Bhook. Four huu- drod wont down under it. Who knows where the next will take place. Eleo trio shocks cauBe gales, cyolouos, heavy rains aud floods. I wish to impress on the minds of the masses that each individual Is a world in it self, subjeot to storm aud sunshine, and our winds and bodies are affected by the same shook as our atmosphere is in an earthquake or cyclone. Ani mals feel aud notice the state of the atmosphere and knowing the approach of a storm seok a place of safety. Some persons that are not well, thoir norvos being easily worked upon, feel the shock aud often are paralyzed, or become insane,some take on differ ent forms, flying Into fits of passion, aonie try to drown trouble by making more by gotting drunk. From those observations one can if he will notice all manner of aociaeuts, deaths and births occur on those days when theso shocks take plaoe. Notice also the stato of your body as to hoalth on those days nud see if roaBon don't dig doepeBt and fancy fly most froo. And you will at onco aeo how it is you at ti men feel a little under tho wenther, or in otho.' word , you aud 1 and tho pluuet we inhabit are nil gov eroued by law.aud we pay the penalty of violatiou. Let your mind rule in dilliculty with all'airs. E. P. HAMMOND, Medford's Astrouoineo Observer. ADDITIONAL PERSONAL II. 11. Nye was up from tho mine Saturday.
